Sam nods "And Lobo was just about to get his." Sam orders a shot of rye and pays for it, and downs it quickly. "Don't tempt me, Shep, don't tempt me. Besides," she adds spotting Mariana "I'm sure there are other things you'd rather be doing and I doubt you give a damn about my thoughts on the subject." Sam gets up, "I'd rather not spoil such a happy occasion. Excuse me." Sam gets up and starts to head for the elevator. (tag)

Mariana picks into a trot and cuts Sam of. "LT... umm... Sam." She says "Look, ou should stay and hang out. Vent a little. Drink a lot." She tries to steer Sam back to the table. "Besides, as corny as it sounds, it'll help us to know each other a little informally." She starts towards the table. "Plus, I think Dyson likes you." She adds in a whisper half-dragging Sam to the table. "So, sit down, and let go of the rank for a while."

Sam can't hide the surprise on her face "What? Dyson? No, that can't be right." She can't help glancing at him and blushing a little. Sam shakes her head a little more firmly "No, besides, it doesn't matter. He's... well, never mind." Sam sighs "You have a point though, Sg..Mariana."
Sam lets Mar drag her back to the table. "All right." she admits "it would be nice to get a chance to relax for a bit." Sam orders a bottle of rye and a glass "Want some?" she asks Mar. (tag)

" Nice of you to join us Sarge. " Dyson smiled as Mar and Sam sat down.
Behind his mug, shep muttered. " Yeah, just ducky. Let the good times roll." He set the mug down and smirked.

Sam glares at Shep. "Don't start. This is supposed to be a celebration, so pretend to get along. If you can't do that, then ignore each other." Sam pours a shot and drinks it down and pours another one, and falls quiet.
After a minute she asks Shep "So do you happen to know why half of my troops are being transferred all of a sudden?" (tag)

" Fine, I'll call truce." Shep grugingly agreed. " I kinda had something to do with that. I recomendded in my report that Rhys be considered as squad sargeant should a position come available. I didn't know Thom was rebuilding and the Colonel snatched him up. He asked who else we could spare to help rebuild and I suggested either Lobo or Eliie and they took the juicer. Don't worry, we'll get replacements before they send us off to..." He caught himself and took a swig of his drink. " to our next mission."

Sam glances sharply at Shep "Send us where? Where exactly are they planning on sending us now?" she asks him in a tone that lets him know she won't let him get out of answering. (tag)

" Man I've got a big mouth..." Shep grumbled. He rested his elbows on the table and leaned in so no one could easedrop from another table. " The Colonel said something about sending us on an inside job against Sprite's boys to soften them up. They've been getting brazen and took out one of the 4th mechanized's recon patrols. Command wants to remind them who they're dealing with. They've got a complex built into a hillside out to the east from here somewheres, don't know all the details ," he took another drink and then started to pour another, yet."

Sam can't hide her surprise and hides behind her glass as she downs another drink. "Why are they telling you all of this and not even telling me? Was I even going to get the real objective or were they going to tell another cover story?" Sam doesn't try to hide that she's upset over the situation. (tag)

" No offense, LT, but the colonel knows me, hell I play poker with him when I happen to be here on thursday nights. He doesn't know you yet." Shep replied before grinning. " And I took the liberty of glancing over the file on his desk concerning the run. Don't worry, I'm sure he'll brief us properly."
He gave her an odd look. " You weren't with us when we originally set out. Luietenant Archer knew alot more than you did from the original briefing. Not everything, but he knew most of it. I can understand you not liking secrets, but thats the way special forces works."

Sam shakes her head "Secrets I can understand, but how can they expect me to do my job if I don't know what's going on in the first place?" Sam sighs as she takes another drink "I'm not competely stupid, you know, depsite what you might think." (tag)

Marianna takes the bottle and pours a double for herself, downing it like water. "I think he think's everyone that's not him is stupid. It's a common failing among men that reach a non-com rank." She points at Dyson. "Learn from this man. Don't repeat is mistakes." And she chuckles, asking over an extra bottle of whatever hadn't been opened yet.

Dyson chuckled, his low tolerance to alcohol starting to surface. " Yes MA'am, I'll try."
Shep sounded insulted. " We've all got our little secrets, it's just a matter of who can suck it up and live with them." He looked as though he was ready to get into it with Mar, but let it slide. " Sorry LT, next time I've got inside information, I'll keep my mouth shut, okay? And if I thought anyone here was stupid, I wouldn't be sitting here with any of you."

"Yer a sweetie." Mariana looks at Dyson, and slides him another drink. With a wink and a nudge to Sam, she turns, and tries to pull a serious and meaningful face on Shep. "I think... I think you need to come to the bar to get me a drink, you do." She says, nodding her head to Dyson and Sam.

Sam scowls at Shep. "Fine, be an ass. All I'm asking for is information whenever it's needed for me to do my job properly. I practically grew up in the military lifestyle, I know how to keep secrets when I need to." Sam ignores Shep at this point and keeps drinking. Glaring at Marianna, she snaps "What the hell did I just say to Shep not 5 minutes ago? Don't start. Or I swear I'll ship you both to the opposite ends of the earth" (tag)
